In 1961, Thompson Boats did the photography for their brochure on Skaneateles Lake.

St. James’ Episcopal can be seen above; the next two photos were taken at Lakelawn (Lone Oak) and The Beeches, farther down the lake’s western shore. I would have preferred to have seen more of the houses, but Thompson was not selling real estate.

A photo image from a Skaneateles postcard mailed from the village to Atlanta, Georgia, in August of 1903. The postcard itself was later “trimmed” with a scissors, but the image itself was worth saving, and here it is.
